Hi all For sale here for £500 is a bike frame behind by my late father who was an avid competitive cyclist in his younger years around the early 1970s. This has been kept in a garage completely unused for many years. It is in very good condition and I found it is a loft without any wheels...

Hi all For sale here for £200 is a bike left behind by my late father who was an avid competitive cyclist in his younger years around the early 1970s. This has been kept in a garage completely unused since at least what I can remember from 1990, no doubt way earlier than that. The start of...

Hi all Thanks you for your replies, it's great to see this would be of interest to people and a good home could be found! Further to Chickendrumsticks query about the stem and seat pin. Do you mean 'can the silver seat post sticking out from the orange frame be removed from the main frame'...

I believe from a search of http://www.nkilgariff.com/Professional.htm It's this model described in these attachments.

Hi all This is my first post here and I come to ask for advice please. My father was an avid cyclist in his younger years (I suspect around the early 1970's) and he unfortunately passed away a few years back. Some of the items he left behind which I'm looking to seek advice on what to do with...
